Everything Looks Simple from a Distance (2023)
It's 1969. The American's have not landed on the moon yet and in Northern Ireland, political tensions are mounting. Noah, an idealistic inventor, has a unique yet naïve idea. He believes it will unite the country's battling factions in a shared dream of progress, putting an end to the growing violence. His plan is to convince politicians, money men, religious figureheads and paramilitaries to help him get Northern Ireland to the moon.
